response to marisa

I agree with you Marisa. I see the word "disabled" in several different ways. One, defines perhaps a physical or mental ailment that must be addressed in order to help a student progress. I do not take these limitations lightly. They can at times be profound, and they deserve our respect and attention to how to help the individual.

I also think we are all in a way disabled in our thinking. Maybe that is how I should have put it. We are at times, unable to find ways or go beyond our comfort zones in order to help others. We have our own barriers and I think this disables us in a way.
